For those that missed out on the crowd funding versions and the mess that turned into (not band’s fault), you’ll be pleasantly surprised by this re-pressing of Stavesacre’s really great 2006 album “How To Live With a Curse” as well as 2017’s comeback record, “1995” (MCMXCV). These two incredible releases are getting a special edition vinyl pressing on behalf of Unoriginal Vinyl and Tooth & Nail Records.

I can best describe her sound as a cross between Crystal Lewis, Amy Lee, Fireflight and Bon Jovi with a strong emphasis on spiritual story telling and worship centered lyrics.… Continued →

I first heard of Cross-Check a few months ago through social media channels. Shortly thereafter, I was asked to review their mini-album Overwhelming Odds for Heaven’s Metal. What I found on that release equally excited and bewildered me. The band has a way of weaving some very interesting and somewhat disparate influences into their sound. While they clearly take as their foundation a traditionalist line of old school hardcore, they manage to weave such diverse sounds as street punk, post-punk, rockabilly, and occasionally even surf rock.… Continued →
